Slow Down

There have been 76 hands of four-handed play. Through the first 60 hands, there were five eliminations. Ever since John Kalmar was knocked out on Hand #60, the bustouts have subsided. Jerry Yang lost his massive chiplead and Alex Kravchenko has made a run to jump into second place in chips.

Last 10 Hands: 121-130

Alex Kravchenko has made an amazing run at the final table. He started the day as the short stack and on Hand #127 he jumped to second place in chips. At one point, he dragged three in a row and then two more over the last ten hands.

Raymond Rahme slipped into last place in chips after he doubled up Tuan Lam who outflopped him with A-10 against his pocket Queens.

Canada 1, South Africa 0

Team South Africa
Team South Africa
Score one for Team Canada. Tuan Lam cracked Raymond Rahme's pocket Queens and jumped into third place in chips, while Rahme slipped into fourth place. The Canadian railbirds are extra boisterous at the moment, while the South Africa railbirds are stunned and sitting in silence.
